A sci-fi adventure on the high seas, NADIA: The Secret of Blue Water is the acclaimed television series from visionary director Hideaki ANNO (NEON GENESIS EVANGELION). This award-winning show is loosely based on the works of Jules Verne, and its popularity later inspired a film, manga, and video games.


It’s 1889 and people from around the globe are flocking to Paris to see scientific achievements at the Exposition Universelle despite rumors of dangers lurking in the oceans. While attending the fair, teenaged inventor Jean meets Nadia, a mysterious girl who possesses a highly sought-after crystal called Blue Water. Pursued by nefarious forces, the pair journey by sea and by sky to escape their would-be captors and to discover the secret of the crystal.

NADIA: THE SECRET OF BLUE WATER is a sci-fi adventure on the high seas from Hideaki ANNO. The classic series is a preview into ANNO’s early directorial vision before creating NEON GENESIS EVANGELION, and returns with an all-new 4K restoration.
